@Reep RE: COD: Try to read this paragraph, not as an angry, rehearsed trolling, but a genuine musing.
I like to consider myself a "gamer"; I like to play games that make you think, be it in a puzzle or in a suspensful storyline, then I like to find out EVERYTHING in the game, go back and see what would happen if I did this instead of that. I tend to prefer older games; not old, old lke Mario tennis, but SNES games from early to late 90's (Chrono Trigger, the Legend of Zelda) because they had worked out how to make games, so now they could concentrate on making the game mean something. They were like books, but you decide the end (Chrono Trigger has 13 different endings) and things that happen to the character, happened to you. Another game I really like is Tony Hawk's Underground, as it was one of the first games I played and the storyline was MEGA. But with COD there seems to be a distinct lack of imagination in it, it's like the early 80's again, the devs are simply trying to work out how to make the game look as good as possible and experimenting with these new graphics instead of gameplay, which I have nothing against, it simply means once they're done with that, they can concentrate on making a game that has chapters and story develepment and twists in the plot. I just think COD's a bit of fun in your spare time, not something you devote yourself to and can feel an attachment to. Rather than spend all of your time on the game trying to work out how to get round an obstacle, or weigh out the options, choose which path, you spend ALL your time doing the same thing. When you get a COD get you KNOW what you're buying, and you can have comfort in that, despite the fact it's quite low quality and very expensive. It's like the Starbucks of gaming. But that's just me. Sorry to rant, and I know I sound like one of those BF3 trolls but I'm not, really!
Again, I apologise! I won't stay on this, I probably won't mention it again. I know it's a hideously generic argument. It's not something I care that passionately about, though, if you like it, you like it, if you don't you don't. _________________ There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn.
